Primo 8oz Heavy Duty Hip Flask with Funnel (Gift Boxed)

Primo's 8oz heavy duty hip flask with funnel in a gift box, a sturdy pocket flask for tailgates and weddings.

Our score8.3/10

A hip flask is the classic way to bring a measure of your favorite spirit along to a game, a campsite, or a night out. Slim enough to slip into a pocket, it keeps a couple of pours on hand without hauling a full bottle. Stainless steel resists dents and will not add off flavors, and a leak-proof cap is the detail that matters most. Check the capacity, since a few ounces goes further than you think, and look for a built-in funnel to make filling clean. A smooth finish takes engraving well. Below we compare flasks built to travel.
